Uhor Posted Monday at 05:45 AM Posted Monday at 05:45 AM (edited) It took me days and hours but this poem is finally presentable. It's meant for a virtual orchestra, because its so huge. The literal poetic guide is in the description of the video, though it was written after-the-fact. Edited Monday at 05:47 AM by Uhor PDF The Earth, The Moon, The Sun 1 Quote
PeterthePapercomPoser Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago Hey @Uhor! Thanks to you sharing this composition I realized we're both in the same early music server! I like how you create a rich but oddly calm soundscape in the beginning, only for it to turn more and more menacing as the piece progresses. At first you introduce the night, and the moon. Then the sun rises and creates desolation, even though it is also the giver of life. Your music seems to be a celebration of mostly diatonic dissonance. I like the brass chordal scalar runs up and down around 8:30ish. The music builds through a slow accelerando increasing the momentum. But it doesn't lead to a climax but instead dissipates back down. Around 14ish the music arrives at a big sustained dissonant chord. But it's not overly dissonant, retaining some pan-diatonicism, with the ebb and flow of passing solo Trumpet scales and Trombone counterpoint. Very interesting soundscape - thanks for sharing! 1 Quote
